Steps:
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Cut grapefruit in half crosswise and slice off a thin sliver off the bottom of each half if the fruit isn't sitting flat. Use a sharp paring knife to cut around the outside edge of the grapefruit and between each segment to make the fruit easier to eat once cooked.
- Combine softened butter and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a small bowl. Spread mixture over each grapefruit half. Sprinkle with remaining brown sugar.
- Cut aluminum foil into two 5-inch squares and place each grapefruit half on one square; fold up the edges to catch any juices. Set in the air fryer basket.
- Broil in the air fryer until sugar mixture is bubbling, 6 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle fruit with cinnamon before serving.

BROILED GRAPEFRUIT WITH BROWN SUGAR AND FLAKY SALT
A classic at a fancy breakfast or brunch, the best broiled grapefruits have a glossy caramelized topping covering sections of the warm, juicy citrus. This recipe also includes a little cinnamon for a heady fragrance, and a touch of sea salt, which softens the bitterness of the grapefruit peel. It's best served warm from the oven, when the brown sugar is still melted and syrupy. Ruby or pink grapefruits make for the prettiest presentation, but white ones work just as well, and have a livelier, more acidic flavor.

Steps:
- Move the rack 4 inches away from the broiler, and turn it on.
- Halve the grapefruits through their equators. Using a paring knife or a grapefruit knife, cut the sections away from the membranes and pith so they are easy to spoon up. Place grapefruit halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each grapefruit half with 1 tablespoon brown sugar, then drizzle with melted butter and a little honey. Sprinkle cinnamon over the tops if you like.
- Broil grapefruit until the sugar melts and caramelizes, 2 to 5 minutes. (Broilers vary a lot so watch carefully to make sure they don't burn.) Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Select the right grapefruit. Choose grapefruits that are heavy for their size and have smooth, blemish-free skin. Avoid grapefruits with soft spots or bruises.
- Zest the grapefruit before broiling. Zesting the grapefruit releases its aromatic oils and helps the sugar caramelize during broiling.
- Broil the grapefruit until it is slightly caramelized. The grapefruit should be tender and slightly browned on the edges. Avoid over-broiling, as this will make the grapefruit bitter.
- Serve the grapefruit immediately. Broiled grapefruit is best served warm. You can top it with a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Broiled grapefruit is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. It is a great way to enjoy the health benefits of grapefruit, including its high vitamin C content.
